American tennis star Tommy Paul’s superfan Eddy enjoyed his
every point during the US Open round of 16 clash.
The fourth and final Grand Slam is moving towards the business
end as players from all over the world continue to battle to secure the ultimate
prize.
Paul’s journey in the mega-event came to an end as he lost
to young tennis sensation fellow American Ben Shelton with a score of 6-4, 6-3,
4-6, 6-4 on Sunday.
Despite the result, Paul’s superfan Eddy enjoyed every point
of his favourite player while sitting in the arena.
The result will be a disappointing one for the New Jersey-born
who, despite playing in the main round of the Grand Slam 17 times, has only
played once beyond the fourth round.
This was Paul’s best outing in the US Open as previously, he
only played in the third round once which was last year.
The world number 14 defeated Italy’s Stefano Travaglia in
the first round with a score of 6-2, 6-3, 4-6, 6-1. In the round of 64, he got the
better of Russia’s Roman Safiullin in a five-set thriller with a score of 3-6,
2-6, 6-2, 6-4, 6-3.
In the third-round clash, Paul defeated Spain’s Alejandro Davidovich
Fokina with a score of 6-1, 6-0, 3-6, 6-3.

- Let's not BS the general public -- Sabalenka started showing cracks in her game last season. Her losses and near-losses started at about the same time she began being distracted by Fame (constant Selfies, making TV commercials, magazine shoots, endless Social Media nonsense, etc., etc.) One would think even Saba could recognize the parallels with others who failed before her -- Raducanu, Giorgi, Bouchard to name a few.

- And then these same players will complain about how lengthy their season’s were and need more time-off. I’m all for more tennis but the amount of tennis we get now is actually kind of crazy! We all need a break, especially the players.DaveyWavey23-09-2026
- You should do a comparison article for "different kinds of justice" the courts decide for tennis players. I can think of at least three players who received very small bans of a few months, however Tara Moore has been fighting for her literal survival the past few years. It seems odd considering she is not a "name" player, unlike the other cases.DaveyWavey22-09-2026
